DANIEL AND THE REVELATION-Uriah Smith

                                 ~The Response of History to the Revelation~

                                   Chapter 22 – The Tree and the River of Life
                   will not be perpetual, like the use of the fruit;


               but the idea of disease and deformity in the


               immortal  state  is  contrary  to  the  express


               declarations of other scriptures.




               VERSE 3. And there shall be no more curse:


               but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be


               in it; and his servants shall serve him.



               This language proves that the great God, the


               Father, is referred to, as well as the Son. The


               marks  of  the  curse,  the  deadly  miasma,  and


               the  ghastly  scenes  of  desolation  and  decay,


               will  no  more  be  seen  on  the  earth.  Every


               breeze  will  be  balmy  and  life-giving;  every


               scene, beauty; and every sound, music.




               VERSE 4. And they shall see his face; and his


               name shall be in their foreheads.
